Re-inventing a Classic

Posted on August 3, 2017 at 12:20 AM

This past weekend we presented Carol and Raul's wedding cake at the Clinton Town Hall in Clinton, Massachusetts. Our lovely bride Carol is very traditional and wanted to have an old-school wedding cake with separate tiers, and fountains. Sometimes making classic cakes can feel a bit dated but I was up for the challenge. Carol is young and vibrant so I wanted to highlight her youth by adding a modern twist to her vision.


I decided to give it a fresh look by adding ruffles emulating the wedding dress, and gilded decorations. The touch of gold made the cake look regal and timeless. The bride also wanted to highlight her Caribbean roots by having bright flowers. I added white lilies and coral roses with touches of champagne spray roses. To add to the tropical theme, the bride and groom selected for cake flavors Passion Fruit, Morir Soñando (orange cream) and Pina Colada.

Now let's talk about the size of this cake. Holy macaroni! it's huge! Let's go over all it went in to create this cake:

For this 250 servings cake I used 156 eggs, 14 lbs of flour, 18 lbs of butter, 24 lbs of sugar, 15 lbs of fondant and about 10 grams of edible gold dust (believe me, that's a lot of gold). It took 45 hours to complete, 1.5 hours to deliver and 1.5 hours to set up at the venue. 


After all was said and done, I think I accomplished what I set out to do, create a breathtaking, classic, and timeless centerpiece for a delightful couple who celebrated their love in from of all their family and friends, and I couldn't be more proud. Mission Accomplished! ;)

I in addition to my friends happened to be examining the excellent guides on the blog and immediately developed a terrible feeling I never thanked you for those tips. All the young men happened to be absolutely passionate to see all of them and now have extremely been enjoying them. We appreciate you truly being so considerate and then for picking this kind of useful areas millions of individuals are really wanting to be aware of. Our honest apologies for not expressing gratitude to you earlier.

I intended to create you a very small word to help thank you very much again over the amazing principles you have contributed here. This has been surprisingly generous of people like you to present unreservedly what a few individuals could have advertised as an ebook in making some bucks for their own end, principally considering that you could have tried it if you ever desired. These inspiring ideas as well served like the good way to understand that someone else have the identical keenness just as my very own to know a great deal more with regard to this problem. I know there are several more fun times in the future for many who find out your site.
